Getting Started with the Gnosis Card

This article briefly explains Gnosis Card integration within Gnosis App

Gnosis Card brings self-custodial crypto payments directly into the Gnosis App, allowing you to spend digital assets anywhere Visa is accepted.

Built on Gnosis Chain and powered by Safe smart accounts, Gnosis Pay with its card connects onchain assets with traditional payment networks while keeping users in control of their funds at all times.


📇 How Gnosis Card works

Unlike traditional crypto cards that require users to preload funds into a custodial account, Gnosis Pay allows you to spend directly from your self-custodied wallet balance. Your assets remain in your wallet until the moment a payment is processed.

Transactions are securely connected to the Visa payment network, enabling crypto payments both online and in physical stores worldwide.

Key features include:

  • Self-custodial spending

  • Global Visa acceptance

  • Fast onchain settlement

  • Support for stablecoin payments

  • Integration with Apple Pay & Google Pay


Understand self-custody

Gnosis Card is built to ensure you remain in control of your funds before, during, and after each payment. Only you can authorize transactions from your wallet.

Your wallet is secured through Safe smart account infrastructure, and payment functionality is enabled using dedicated smart contract security modules.

These protections include:

  • Transaction permission controls

  • Delayed transaction execution safeguards

  • Onchain transaction transparency
